SAVANNAH — It’s official. U.S. Senator from Georgia Raphael Warnock now has a street named after him in Savannah.

Savannah officials designated a street “Raphael Warnock Way” yesterday during a ceremony on Cape Street at the corner of Draper Street in Kayton-Frazier Homes.

Planning for the new street designation began in August when the city council voted to approve the street designation for Warnock to recognize his significant contributions to the city.  

City officials say Warnock’s achievements serve as a testament to Savannahians that they can overcome obstacles and make positive change.

Warnock is currently in a heated senate race against Republican Herschel Walker.
